Abstract

A high-arched foot orthosis has two bodies, and each one of the two bodies has a wearing space, a foot portion, an ankle portion, a shank portion, a substrate, and an elastomer. The substrate and the elastomer are disposed adjacent to each other, and surround the wearing space. The substrate extends from the foot portion to the shank portion through the ankle portion. The elastomer inwardly extends from an instep of the foot portion at a cuneiform bone of a wearer through an arch, a sole, and a lateral side of the foot portion in order, wraps over a cuboid bone of the wearer, extends through the ankle portion inwardly combining upwardly toward the shank portion, and wraps over a talus bone of the wearer.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A high-arched foot orthosis comprising:
 two bodies, each one of the two bodies having
 a wearing space formed inside the body; 
 a foot portion having
 a sole located on a bottom of the foot portion; 
 an instep located on a top of the foot portion; 
 an arch located on one of two horizontal sides of the foot portion, facing the other one of the two bodies, and connected to the sole and the instep; and 
 a lateral side located on the other one of the two horizontal sides of the foot portion, and connected to the sole and the instep; 
 
 an ankle portion connected to the foot portion; 
 a shank portion connected to the ankle portion; 
 a substrate surrounding the wearing space and extending from the foot portion to the shank portion through the ankle portion; and 
 an elastomer disposed adjacent to the substrate, surrounding the wearing space, extending from the instep of the foot portion at a cuneiform bone of a wearer through the arch and the sole in order, wrapping over a cuboid bone of the wearer, extending through the ankle portion inwardly and upwardly toward the shank portion, and wrapping over a talus bone of the wearer. 
   
     
     
         2 . The high-arched foot orthosis as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the elastomer of each one of the two bodies surrounds and fetters on the shank portion of the body. 
     
     
         3 . The high-arched foot orthosis as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 each one of the two bodies has
 a knee portion connected to the shank portion; and 
 a thigh portion connected to the knee portion; 
   wherein the elastomer of each one of the two bodies extends to the thigh portion through a rear side of the shank portion, obliquely extends in combination with upward and outward turns through an outer side of the knee portion toward a front side of the thigh portion, and surrounds and fetters the thigh portion.   
     
     
         4 . The high-arched foot orthosis as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 each one of the two bodies has
 a knee portion connected to the shank portion; and 
 a thigh portion connected to the knee portion; and 
   the high-arched foot orthosis has a pelvis portion connected to the two thigh portions of the two bodies, and wrapping over a hip joint of the wearer;   wherein the elastomer of each one of the two bodies extends through a rear side of the shank portion, obliquely extends in combination with upward and outward turns through an outer side of the knee portion, spirally extends through the thigh portion and the pelvis portion, intersects with the elastomer of the other one of the two bodies at a front side of the pelvis portion, and surrounds and fetters where the wearer's pelvis and the wearer's waist meet.
